Folks,The plan is to have lunch at a pub in Bombala (seems to be a choice of 2), around 12.30pm. After lunch, ride over to Candelo, via Wyndham and Myrtle Mt, then Bemboka and finally, up the Brown and back to Canberra after lunch. Date planned is Saturday 17 September but some flexibility to adjust to suit circumstances. Plan would be to leave Williamsdale servo at 10.00am, stop for coffee at (say) Bredbo. Should be back in Canberra at ~5.00pm or a bit earlier. Post lunch route from Bombala to Bemboka is a beauty. Route is shown via this link. Just let me know via reply post here if you're planning to participate.

That route is my favorite ride, looking forward to it very much. I haven't been through there since the big floods and heard Mt Darrah copped a real belting.

Bega valley Shire Council doesn't seem to be doing too much in the way of road repairs at the moment. I might even get a chance to survey the route between now and then just to make sure we know exactly where any trouble spots might be. The Myrtle Mt Rd is a hoot but looks like it would bite back if anyone was silly enough to be over-cooking it on some of the slower downhill corners.

in limbo at the moment....about 4 weeks ago did a MAJOR mischief to my back!! havent been for a bloody ride since.....been to doctor and physio and x ray with massage, hot pacs , stretching etc etc etc and still no bloody good...been going into painful spasms..............can't even push the bike outside to wash it.......but .....I do have a plan "B" and will let you know a bit closer.....................................Grumpy

Yes, still keen. The bike is all back together. I was going to go for a quick run to Nowra tomorrow for a longish ride. Only 50km so far, but feels great.

I'm on long service leave at the moment, looking after my 1 year old son. I'm able to get away for a ride during the week as long as my wife doesn't have a shift on that day, so I'm also keen to come along on a reccy run, whatever day suits.
